early weaning?

What age did you wean your lo? My lo will be 17 weeks tomorrow and i dont plan on weaning him anytime soon. He isnt showing any signs of being ready but i saw my mum yesterday for first time since before xmas (she doesnt live near me) and she told me he should be on solids and its because he isnt on any and he is getting too much milk he is so big. He was always big was on the 75th centile from birth and drinks 6oz milk every 3 to 4 hours and doesnt wake anymore during night for milk so i wouldnt say he was getting too much milk. this is my 4th baby not my first so im sure i will know when he is ready but she always has a way of making me feel like i dont know what im doing. Sorry for the rant but is she right and i should be feeding him because he is big for his age? X
